Game Pillars &
Features

Emotion &
Intensity

Emotional Intelligence —
For the first time ever, FIFA 15 models the emotions of all 22 players
on the pitch, giving fans a chance to experience first-hand the
attitudes and personalities of the world’s best football players during
a match. Players now recognize situations that trigger an emotional
response and react naturally based on the game context. For example, a
player that is being repeatedly fouled by an opponent could confront
that opponent depending on the severity of the challenge and context of
the competition. Players will respond authentically with new reactions
to decisions, bad tackles, missed chances, goals, and other pivotal
moments throughout the game. There are over 600 potential emotional
reactions that could play out over the course of a game.

Dynamic Match
Presentation — Match Day will feel more dynamic and alive
than ever before – immersing you in the match action and never taking
you out of the moment. With region specific behaviors, crowds will now
be distinguished by cheers and chants designated to their club, league,
country, or continent. Fans at Anfield in Liverpool feel and act
differently than the fans at La Bombonera in Buenos Aires. Commentators
will mention specific fan behavior triggered by unique fan moments like
the Poznan or club songs. New Bench Reactions, 10 Player Goal
Celebrations, ball boy animations, and contextual commentary will keep
FIFA 15 fans engaged in the story of the match.

Unrivalled Intelligence

Team Tactics —
Teams will now have contextual awareness of the game and will
dynamically adjust their tactics according to the situation. For
example, your opponent could be leading by a goal in the 88th minute
and decide to hold the ball in the corner in an attempt to run down the
clock. The end result is a more humanlike opponent that takes more
risks when trailing, and potentially a more conservative approach when
leading. Park the Bus, In the Mixer, and Time Wasting are just some of
the Team Tactics fans will recognize in FIFA 15.
Incredible Visuals

Authentic Player Visuals —
The FIFA 15 development team created the Next Generation football
player – ensuring players appear true to their physical form. An
all-new physically-based rendering lighting system changes the way
players look, ensuring users are able to see a level of detail in
players’ faces which hasn’t been possible before. New body rigging and
character models make players feel powerful and athletic, while kits
move realistically and react with the environment becoming dirty with
mud and grass as the match unfolds.

Living Pitch —
Pitches will never be the same. Slide tackles and boot marks are now
visible on the pitch, and as the match progresses, the playing surface
becomes increasingly weathered just as it would in a real football
match. Fans playing in rain or wet weather will notice mud and debris
on the pitch. Corner flag physics, goal frames that shake, and animated
LED ad boards are just some of the new details that bring FIFA 15 to
life.

Player Control

Agility & Control
— FIFA 15 adds an all new level of responsiveness and
control. Run Touch Dribbling allows players to better keep the ball
under control in a sprint and in close-touch situations, giving
personality to the most recognized players in the world. Leo Messi will
dribble and move like he does in real life. Updated player biomechanics
means that players will now react and move with balance and closer
control when in possession of the ball. More precise steps and turns at
low speed, and closer control at high speeds give fans more control and
increased mobility when commanding players on the pitch.

Man-to-Man Battles —
Dispossessing your opponent in FIFA 15 is more rewarding and physical
than ever before. Players use Full-Body Defending to win possession and
keep it. Possession Tackles will reward great defending, helping
players keep the ball close to their feet when a challenge is won. New
shoulder barges, push/pull mechanics, and big fall physics allow fans
to feel the battle; shirt pulling is also visible thanks to new
character visuals and improved cloth technology.

Correct Contacts —
Physically Correct Contacts revolutionizes the way the football
interacts with the players and their environment. Every dribble, touch,
pass, shot, and deflection moves corresponding to the spin of the ball
in relation to the position of the body part or object that it connects
with – this gives the football accurate spin, curl, and movement, as
well as varied trajectories. The movement of the ball in FIFA 15
changes the game.

Set Piece Control –
FIFA 15 fans now have more freedom in attack with the ability to take
control of teammates during throw-ins, corners, and free kicks. Using
the right stick, FIFA fans can now control teammates off the ball to
put them in the optimal spot to receive a pass during dead ball
situations.
